Say Hi to Kate @ The Manga Critic!
May 4th, 2009 by david brothers | Tags: manga, mangacriticKate Dacey, formerly of PopCultureShock, has launched a new blog called The Manga Critic with two things: an adorable avatar and a name so obvious and well chosen that I can’t believe no one beat her to it. It’s subtitled “Reviews for the discerning manga fan,” and a very good read so far. I added the RSS to Google Reader. You should, too.
Funnily enough, or maybe not, she’s already reviewed a book I was thinking of checking out. Samurai 7 is a retelling of Akira Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai, and Kate tackles it with gusto.

Thanks for the shout-out — it’s much appreciated! You’ll have to come do a guest post sometime. As for the name, you’re not the only one who was surprised at its availability. Sure beat having to come up with something clever!
Cheers,
Kate
Great! I’ve been looking for a good manga-based site for a long time and this looks right up my alley. I’ve added the RSS to iGoogle. 🙂
